MMI has agreed a position paper recommending that Ireland commits to full membership of the European Research Infrastructure Consortiums (ERICS) for two European biomedical research infrastructures: Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Infrastructure (BBMRI) and the European Clinical Research Infrastructure Network (ECRIN). MMI and ICRIN are the Irish scientific partners of BBMRI and ECRIN respectively, and the ERIC is the legal instrument agreed by the European Council of Ministers in 2009 to provide a governance framework for the next phase of the development of the European research infrastructures.
